Tonight’s final debate just wrapped up and I must say I am highly disappointed. Obama had a steely glare going tonight that was rather overly intense. He made some jabs 1) saying Romney wants to bring social policies of the 1950’s back: a not-so-concealed attack on his Mormon faith and he 2) tried to school Romney on our military and carriers and submarines as if he was some kind of idiot. The carrier commentary was just plain un-presidential and un-professional. It smelled of the kind of attack a community organizer would make if he were running for an Alderman’s seat, NOT the Presidency of the United States. He failed to show any respect for his competitor and it will come back to haunt him on election day.

Let’s talk about foreign policy and strategies. In particular, Obama ran as a candidate of peace in 2008. He talked about bringing the world community together to solve the greater challenges that face the world. He sold himself as the man to unite disparate cultures. Let’s look at his actions over these last four years. He has distanced the US from Israel. He turned against the leader of Egypt and that nation fell into chaos and is now being run by Islamo-fascists. Tunisia, Libya, and Syria all are in disarray. Iran is on the verge of being nuclear capable. And China is sabre rattling for islands claimed by Japan while North Korea continues to export missile technology to Iran. Failure after failure after failure.

Let’s look at our home front: gasoline is $4.05/gallon compared to $1.89 when he took office, the price of bread, milk, and measures of currency strength such as gold and silver all point to a falling purchasing power for everyone. Your earnings have been pinched by at least 20% by the devaluation of the dollar. Obama’s policies are dismantling our manufacturing, distribution, and agricultural system. Employers are reluctant to hire out of fear of the implications of Obamacare.

He sold us on Hope and on Change. He painted a picture we all wanted to believe in. But he did not deliver. He had 4 years to prove himself, as unqualified as he was, he failed. We cannot continue on a failed pathway, we must choose a different course, on a different vessel, helmed by a leader with vision, experience, and accomplishments that are measurable. In tough times such as these, we have a narrow window to correct our course before the ship runs aground. The Community Organizer as President is a failed model. It is time for real change. Despite being out of touch with the common man, I feel Romney is the more qualified. Thus, I endorse Mitt Romney for President.

Before I close, I have to add a personal note. As a veteran, I salute all of you who have lost a loved one in service to this nation. I sincerely hope that one day we, as a nation, have the courage to deserve the sacrifice they have made for the freedoms we allow this government to steal every day. I pray that we have the courage of our forefathers to preserve, protect and defend that which was entrusted to us for the benefit of future generations of Americans. I fear that if we don’t, we will not only dishonor the memory and the sacrifices of those fallen heroes, we also dishonor ourselves. May God have mercy on our nation.

Why? They fear him because they know his message is populist, it speaks to the independents, and it sells the truth not the same lies of the last 12 years. The latest polls show that it’s working, establishment republicans are running behind Ron Paul. The old Texas Doc has them all eating his dust. He is running on the perfect path to the White House – less government, end the fed and bankster domination, and a return to constitutional freedoms. Meanwhile, Romney, Santorum, and the Newt are trotting in the swamps of big government and more wars for our kids. When you go out to caucus, don’t worry what you hear on ABC, NBC, and CBS or CNN for that matter. Ron Paul can beat them and he can beat Obama. Our nation’s future depends on it.

It appears that the Congress did not get the message last year. The tea bags that were mailed made no impression. This government has stepped beyond all sense of accountability to the people. It is time for a bold action.

I urge you to mail a spent (used), non-live bullet shell casing to your Critter in DC. Write a message on it. It is your first amendment right to free speech. Tell DC that our country is out of ammo, they have used it all up, and you have had enough.

If you haven’t already done so, buy silver. Even at the present prices of $37/oz, buy silver. The paper you hold in your wallet or purse is worthless. It is being scorned by the entire world. Use it wisely by buying silver. You would do yourself, your family, and your country a service. Burn the Fed down by buying silver. It’s simple. Every time you get paid, go down to the local coin shop and buy silver.

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that the dollar is spinning the toilet. Silver has been on a tear over the last six months on route to $40 /oz. Who in their right mind would own US fiat right now?!

U.S. district judge Roger Vinson, in Pensacola, Florida on Monday threw out the nation’s health care law, declaring it unconstitutional because it violates the Commerce Clause. The ruling was hailed a victory for individual rights and will surely revive a feud among competing philosophies about the role of government. The judge ruled that as a result of the unconstitutionality of the “individual mandate” that required people to buy insurance, the entire law must be declared void.

Vinson wrote: “I must reluctantly conclude that Congress exceeded the bounds of its authority in passing the act with the individual mandate. That is not to say, of course, that Congress is without power to address the problems and inequities in our health care system. The health care market is more than one-sixth of the national economy, and without doubt Congress has the power to reform and regulate this market. That has not been disputed in this case. The principal dispute has been about how Congress chose to exercise that power here.”

In spite of the ruling, steps appear to still be taken for it’s implementation. According to a CBS News report, “The White House officials said that the ruling would not have an impact on implementation of the law, which is being phased in gradually. (The individual mandate, for example, does not begin until 2014.) They said that states cannot use the ruling as a basis to delay implementation in part because the ruling does not rest on “anything like a conventional Constitutional analysis.” Twenty-six states were involved in the lawsuit.” A popular economics blogger Karl Denninger has even used the word “sedition” to characterise the administrations ongoing activities in spite of the ruling. I kindly disagree. The administration’s ongoing steps taken to implement the law, however; may rise to the standard of Contempt of Court which is equally a serious matter.

On April 12, 1999, President Clinton became the first sitting president in United States history to be held in contempt of court. The contempt charge against President Clinton stemmed from a deposition he gave in connection with a 1994 Sexual Harassment lawsuit filed by Paula Jones. Jones v. Clinton, 858 F. Supp. 902 (E.D. Ark. 1994). Clinton was impeached four months earlier for perjury in that deposition and obstruction of justice, he was acquitted by the Senate behind closed doors on February 12, 1999. If Judge Vinson holds the administration in contempt, it is conceivable the House of Representatives could move for an impeachment of Obama. In my opinion, it is doubtful given that governments around the globe are themselves suffering from citizen unrest in light of rampant food inflation caused by the US Federal Reserves dollar debasement policy.
